      • Once revealed, select as many of the fireflies as you can before they disappear.

        • You have 1 minute to catch as many fireflies as you can.
  • The essentials of alliteration.
    • Alliteration is when two words share the same opening sound.
    • Alliterative pairs of words are often fun to say.
      • People love to use related alliterative words to make catchy slogans.
    • To be alliterative, the first letters of two words must sound the same.
      • Queen and cool are alliterative because they share a similar sound, even if the letters are different.
      • Cheese, celery, and cat, meanwhile, are not alliterative because their opening sounds are different, even if their starting letters are the same.
      • To find out if two words are alliterative, say them out loud!
  • The essentials of echolocation
    • Although bats are not blind, they don’t have very good night vision.
      • To find their food, they use their ultra-sensitive hearing to find food.
        • The bats that rely on echolocation eat insects like moths, fireflies and mosquitoes.
        • They also often have very large ears.
      • Bats use high-pitched sounds and listen for the echoes.
      • The echoes produced will tell the bat where the nearest food is, down to how far away it is.
        • We cannot hear these echoes because they are too high pitched for us to hear.
    • The process of echolocation is also used by whales and dolphins to find food underwater.
    • Sonar, used by airplanes and submarines, uses the same principle to navigate where most people cannot see.
• Target Audience
  • The game is suited for fans of figurative language. 🙂
  • The game has no adult themed content.

Bats in Action

They’re even more awesome to look at in live action. And much like a certain caped crusader, “scary” doesn’t mean “bad.” Insect-eating bats can eat a lot of mosquitoes in a single hour.
